Other than the house under construction across the street, which is temporary, this was a perfect place to stay. It was convenient for visiting other parts of the keys and was very relaxing.

The staff was very happy and helpful with every need, from check in to bringing out the paddleboards and kayaks. Our cottage was clean and we were supplied with ample towels. Breakfast is a nice grab and go, with fresh coffee fruit and bagels/muffins.

Fun place to stay

Very nice place to stay on the keys. Room was very small but clean and beds were comfortable. Lots of games and sports equipment to use and fitness classes to join. Great location and friendly staff. Breakfast was the bare minimum.

I think based on good reviews, my expectations were too high. The room we had was dark and outdated. This place was not a good match for as, as we did not use any of the resort amenities and the price seemed too high for what we got. Breakfast was very scarce - no proteins, no veggies, only chunks of frozen pineapples for fruits and lots of carbohydrates. On a bright side - our 'suite' had kitchenette and that was small, but very well equipped. People working there were friendly and nice.
